S43 - Inja's Elemental Spirit Ensemble Report

General Summary

After discussing at length what the groups next move was, they began Inja's combat exercise. At first it seemed that the group was having an easy time, but eventually they were overwhelmed. The exercise was long and grueling, with it lasting up until the mid-evening. The group, after hours of fighting, were battered, bruised, and sore all over. Inja offers them a meal by bonfire. They gladly accept. 

After Inja masterfully prepares for them yakimono, which the party feasts on with, partnered with a hearty amount of sake. As they eat, Tsuji asks Inja how he summoned all those elemental spirits, to which he tells her that he'd reveal it to her if she performs well in her training. Jiko also asked if he could add his skewers to his menu. Inja gladly agrees.

Once they finished dinner, Inja tells the group that if they were decided with the training, then they are to meet him at the western gate at 4am a day from now. The group heads back to the castle.
